Board of Education 2018-2019 Goals

The Misson of the Roosevelt Union Free School District is to educate the whole child to excel, thereby ensuring achievement for ALL. “Failure is not an Option!"

The Board of Education has made equity for all, improving our technological infrastructure and updating our policies a priority for this school year. We will work with Erie 1 BOCES and our attorney to update all district policies and regulations manuals. The Board will also invite community members to apply for our 2 new committees: Equity and Technology.

The Board of Education will continue to monitor capital reserves and outstanding projects. We will ensure communication of quarterly updates are available to our community.

The Board of Education will work to improve the quality and effectiveness of the leadership we provide by attending professional development classes and board conferences. We will also hosts 2 annual Board of Education retreats to ensure an effective working relationship with one another and the Superintendent.

In an effort to ensure transparency during the budget process, the Board of Education will work with our parents and community members, to develop a vision for the 2019 - 2020 academic school year. This vision will be used to guide us as we work with the Superintendent and Administration to develop a budget that will provide efficient and equitable resources that will support high quality instructional programs and services to our students, while being fiscally responsible to taxpayers.

The Board of Education will continue to advocate for funds with our local and nationally elected officials. We will also collaborate with all stakeholders in our community as well as our educational partners in an effort to reduce costs and efficiencies for our school district. In an additional effort to be fiscally responsible with our finances and reduce our budget, we will put additional procedures and processes in place to ensure that our student population consists of students who only live in Roosevelt community!

The Board of Education will review and assess security measures and the District Building Safety Plans to ensure a safe learning environment for students and staff.
